He lives on another planet and is majoring in Earth Science.

Chapter 407: The enemy gains a golden opportunity at the start, and Li Ji finds himself in dire straits.
The narrator introduced Odo (Li Ji).

“Oddo is the team’s on-field captain. The old captain and club president, John, is 70 years old and it is difficult for him to play anymore.”

"Although the vice-captain and head coach is only 55, he is still vigorous for a football team with an average age of just over 20. However, since he has to coach, Oddo can only take over as captain."

"But don't worry, everyone, there will still be a chance to see the coach's style. He has 7 appearances this year. You may see the head coach warming up on the sidelines in a little while."

"Goalkeeper Oddo's official height is 181 cm, but he looks much taller."

On the field, the two captains shook hands in greeting.

Li Ji looked down at the 180cm tall Manelli.

The other person looked up at him with a surprised expression.

Seeing this strange scene, the commentator quickly explained: "Manelli's official height is 180cm, and Oddo's height is 181cm, but there is a head difference. It's definitely not that Manelli lied about his height; professional teams' data is always accurate."

"Odo must have grown taller recently, after all, he's only—"

The commentator, Cook, glanced down at the data sheet.

"—35 years old. That might be due to a lack of strict team management, resulting in the wrong height being entered."

The match was about to begin, and the captains of both teams approached the bald referee.

He took out a coin and let both parties choose.

If the player guesses correctly, they can choose the direction of the goal or the right to kick off; the other player chooses the remaining rights.

Li Ji glanced at the sky above. The sun was high in the sky, dividing the football field into two halves, one bright and the other dark, so bright that it was hard to open one's eyes.

If the goalkeeper chooses the left-hand goal facing the sun, the glare will interfere with their vision, which will slightly reduce their ability to perform.

Therefore, having the right to choose the goal, and choosing the right goal first, can put the opposing goalkeeper at a disadvantage.

I can't start the game with a debuff, being such a fool.

The referee tossed the coin high into the air, and it landed on the back of his hand.

Although Li Ji's eyesight is not as good as Shark Bao's, it is still far superior to that of earthlings.

He could see it clearly; the side facing upwards was a human head.

Manelli politely said, "You choose first."

"Then I won't stand on ceremony. Heads."

The referee flipped the coin, and sure enough, it was a human head.

Lee Ki decisively chose the right goal, and the Royal team gained the right to kick off.

Royals' number 1 goalkeeper, Cado, reluctantly walked towards the left goal under the blazing sun. He was blinded by the sunlight, but still cheerfully told his teammates, "It doesn't matter, they probably won't even get past the halfway line."

The tall, black guard number 2, Uru, chimed in, "That's right, we can even play poker in the backcourt."

Manelli stands at the center point, with the football under his feet.

With the referee's whistle, Manelli passed the ball to number 8, Romani, and the match officially began.

The entire Hamburg team began to tuck in, forming a tight defensive formation.

Royals played at a leisurely pace, with Romani in possession of the ball and the other players slowly making runs forward.

Commentator Cook said, "As expected, Hamburg adopted a defensive posture, after all, the gap between them and their opponents in terms of strength and physical fitness is not small."

Commentator Jenny chimed in, "That's right, this will allow them to concede fewer goals. Most of them will defend, while a few will press forward to disrupt their passing. However, it will still put considerable pressure on Romagna, the midfield maestro."

"In the last game against the Mediterranean Super Team, he calmly passed the ball out despite being surrounded by five players, assisting Manelli to score. Any team that tries to press him will be making a risky decision. It can easily cause the defense to lose its position and leave gaps that the opponent can exploit."

"We see that Hamburg players have started pressing forward."

When the two commentators saw the pressing player, they couldn't help but laugh. The hunched-over young man charged towards Romani like a dog-headed monster, sticking out his tongue as he ran, his hands flailing wildly in the air as if he were having an epileptic fit.

"This player, he might, he might, pfft, he might have some physical issues, but he still insisted on playing. This kind of professionalism is really something we should learn from."

After saying that, Cook pinched his thigh hard to suppress his laughter.

Jenny desperately covered her mouth, afraid that the other person was disabled; she wanted to laugh but dared not.

Young Master Mang charged toward the football at Romani's feet, stretching out his foot as if about to touch the ball.

Romani made a light, feinting shoulder movement, suddenly changing direction and fooling the young master. By the time the young master turned around, the two were already three body lengths apart.

"Sure enough, it's almost impossible to steal the ball from Romagna. His ball control skills are already superb."

They were stunned when they saw another player pressing forward.

Shark Bao sped across the green field like a cheetah, its four legs touching the ground, moving at a speed comparable to a motorcycle.

The commentator was both surprised and amused: "This player's movement is strange, but his speed is really fast. He seems even faster than Manelli. Will such a high-speed sprint pose a threat to Romagna's possession of the ball?"

Li Ji watched as Shark Baby charged out like a mad dog, and his heart tightened. He kept a close eye on Shark Baby's speed, afraid that he might accidentally break the world record.

Everyone present went crazy because of Shark's unique running posture; they had never seen anyone run on all fours on a professional football field.

People on the sidelines started making noises and laughing.

However, some people were amazed by the Shark Baby's ridiculously fast speed.

The players on the field and the coaches on the sidelines were all surprised.

His teammates thought, "This kid usually struggles to climb stairs, how come he's running so fast today?"

The opponents thought, "What a bizarre running style! And how can he be so fast? It's not mentioned in the data."

Romani squinted his handsome light blue eyes, looking at Shark Baby charging towards him with a puzzled expression. Even with his brows furrowed, he was as handsome as the statue of David.

"What is this?"

Shark Baby raced wildly in the wind, its eyes fixed on the soccer ball, its red tongue flicking outwards.

He remembered Li Ji's teaching and told himself not to touch the ball with his hands.

When he was three meters away from his opponent, he pushed off with all four feet and headed the ball like a missile, skimming along the ground.

In a flash, Romani stopped abruptly with the ball, executed a nimble Marseille turn, and narrowly missed Shark.

He was like an elegant dancer, dodging powerful opponents with the lightest movements.

The entire stadium erupted in cheers, with everyone applauding the brilliant double-cross.

Shark flew past Romani and headbutted the second young master, who was rushing to grab him, in the stomach. The two fell heavily to the ground, seeing stars.

The commentator excitedly shouted: "It's here! Romani's signature move, the Marseille turn! Facing the opponent's seemingly inexplicable low header, Romani deftly dribbled past him."

"Look, an opportunity has arisen!"

Romani launched a long pass to the left flank, where Sharp, responsible for defending the area, made a reckless advance, leaving the area wide open.

Romani delivered a precise 45-meter long pass, finding the ball at the feet of Manelli who had surged forward.

Manelli received the ball and used his speed to instantly get past the chubby John.

In front of him were only the goal and Li Ji.

Lee Ki-saeng watched helplessly as his idol appeared before him.

"No way! He got a one-on-one chance in less than a minute, what am I supposed to do?!"
